About Alexandre Le Borgne de Belle-Isle
Lived 1640 – 1693 (aged 52–53). Alexandre Le Borgne de Belle-Isle was a French colonial administrator.
Alexandre le Borgne de Belle-Isle (1640 – c. 1693), the son of Emmanuel Le Borgne, was a temporary governor of Acadia and seigneur of Port Royal. Around 1675, he married Marie de Saint-Étienne de La Tour, daughter of Charles de Saint-Étienne de La Tour and Jeanne Motin de Reux, widow of Acadian Governor, Charles de Menou d'Aulnay. In 1690, he was an interpreter in the negotiation of the surrender of Port Royal to William Phips.
The seigneurial rights asserted by the Le Borgne father and son since 1650 were always disputed by the heirs of d'Aulnay, and would be settled by an edict from the French Royal Council in 1703.
